Review of Pokhara’s Australian Camp and Dhampus hike: mountain views, Gurung villages, guide support, itinerary, value, and practical tips.

“I really enjoyed this hike organized by CAN travels and I must thank my guide Birendra or Bir for being so helpful throughout the hike. I must say that i found the hike strenous but I'm possibly a 3/10 in activity level and more active people might not find it difficult. It was lovely walking through village hamlets and meadows with the cool breeze though And I'm glad I did it.”
